My parent will not file taxes.
Am i independent or dependent same question goes to my brother and sister ?
It depends.
You would need to check closely to see if you and your siblings qualify to be claimed as a dependent, especially the criteria if you provide yourselves half of your own support. Click here:
Note that if your parents qualify to claim you, but did not actually claim on their return, in the program, under your account, you would still need to check the box Somebody can claim me on their return. The same rules go to your siblings.
Okay thanks for your reply @LinaJ2020 . I applied and i did what you said Someone can calm me box. I got accepted. My brother applied but did not put the calm and he got accepted can he fix this mistake or not.
If your brother already filed, he will have to amend his return to change it.
